1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Small 30-nm vesicles containing the integral membrane protein Atg9 provide the initial membrane source for autophagy in yeast. Atg23 is an Atg9 binding protein that is required for Atg9 vesicle trafficking but whose exact function is unknown. In our recent paper, we explored the function of Atg23 using an approach combining cellular biology and biochemistry on purified protein. We determined that Atg23 is an elongated dimer spanning 320 Å in length. We also demonstrated that Atg23 is a membrane-binding and -tethering protein. Furthermore, we identified a series of amino acids residing in a putative coiled-coil region that when mutated prevent Atg23 dimer formation resulting in a stable Atg23 monomer. Last, we demonstrated that when monomeric Atg23 is expressed in yeast lacking Atg23, this leads to a loss of Atg23 puncta, a reduction in Atg9 puncta, a reduction in nonselective autophagy and a complete block in the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway.
